The Black Burlesque School Social

This Black Burlesque School Social is here! An opportunity to connect with community through movement classes, lunch and performances, showcasing students and guest tutors of The Black Burlesque School, as we celebrate The Windrush Generation!

Movement Classes - Experience living the legacy of performers of Windrush Generation, through the lens of Burlesque and dance. Sessions explore musicality, choreography, song, and costume; taught by Black Burlesque artists Mimi Sugarpill & REI.

Family style Feast - Expect mouthwatering flavours from a colourful spread of dishes, celebrating the homelands of the Windrush Generation. Catering provided by Wicked Wraps Ltd.

Performance - Ending the day enriched with a group dance performance, plus celebratory pop up performances by students of The Black Burlesque School.

This social is funded by Hackney Council's Windrush Microgrant Scheme
